INTRODUCTIONModulation is the process of frequency
translation in which any one parameter(Amplitude, frequency or phase) of high frequency carrier signal is varied in accordance with instantaneous value of low frequency modulating signal.
Modulation is either analog or digital.

INTRODUCTIONMany signals in modern communication
systems are digital Additionally, analog signals are
transmitted digitallyDigitizing a signal results in reduced
distortion and improvement in signal-to-noise ratios

INTRODUCTIONA digital signal is superior to an analog
signal because it is more robust to noise and can easily be recovered, corrected and amplified. For this reason, the tendency today is to change an analog signal to digital data.

Sampling The process of transmitting signals in the
form of pulses (discontinuous signals) by using special techniques.
The signal is sampled at regular intervals such that each sample is propotional to the amplitude of signal at that instant.This technique is called “sampling”.
Sampling is common in all pulse modulation techniques.

SamplingAnalog signal is sampled every TS secs.Ts is referred to as the sampling interval. fs = 1/Ts is called the sampling rate or
sampling frequency.There are 3 sampling methods:
Ideal - an impulse at each sampling instant
Natural - a pulse of short width with varying amplitude
Flat top - sample and hold, like natural but with single amplitude value

Sampling Rate• Nyquist showed that it is possible to
reconstruct a band-limited signal from periodic samples, as long as the sampling rate is at least twice the frequency of the of highest frequency component of the signal i.e. fs ≥ 2fm
where fs is sampling rate• Sampling rates that are too low result in
aliasing or foldover

SamplingSampling alone is not a digital techniqueThe immediate result of sampling is a
pulse-amplitude modulation (PAM) signal
PAM is an analog scheme in which the amplitude of the pulse is proportional to the amplitude of the signal at the instant of sampling
Another analog pulse-forming technique is known as pulse-duration modulation (PDM). This is also known as pulse-width modulation (PWM)
Pulse-position modulation is closely related to PDM

Pulse Amplitude ModulationIn PAM,amplitude of pulses is varied in
accordance with instantaneous value of modulating signal.

The carrier is in the form of narrow pulses having frequency fs.The uniform sampling takes place in multiplier to generate PAM signal.Samples are placed Ts sec away from each other.
1410/31/2012 Punjab Edusat society
15
Pulse Amplitude ModulationDepending upon the shape and polarity of
the sampled pulses, PAM is of two types,Natural PAM sampling occurs when top
portion of the pulses are subjected to follow the modulating wave.
1510/31/2012 Punjab Edusat society
16
Pulse Amplitude ModulationFlat topped PAM sampling is often used
because of the ease of generating the modulated wave. In this pulses have flat tops after modulation.
1610/31/2012 Punjab Edusat society
17
Pulse Amplitude ModulationThe PAM signal can be detected by
passing it through a low pass filter.

Pulse Width ModulationIn this type, the amplitude is maintained
constant but the width of each pulse is varied in accordance with instantaneous value of the analog signal.

Pulse Width ModulationThat is why the information is contained in
width variation. This is similar to FM.In pulse width modulation (PWM), the
width of each pulse is made directly proportional to the amplitude of the information signal.

Pulse Width Modulation
2110/31/2012 Punjab Edusat society
22
Pulse Width ModulationA simple method to generate the PWM
pulse train corresponding to a given signal is the intersective PWM: the signal (here the green sinewave) is compared with a sawtooth waveform (blue). When the latter is less than the former, the PWM signal (magenta) is in high state (1). Otherwise it is in the low state (0).
2210/31/2012 Punjab Edusat society
23
Pulse Width ModulationThe block diagram of next slide can be
used for generation of PWM as well as PPM.In this case a sawtooth signal of frequency fs is a sampling signal.
It is applied to inverting terminal of a comparator with modulating signal at non inverting terminal.
O/P remains high as long as modulating signal is higher than that of ramp signal.

25
Pulse Position ModulationIn this type, the sampled waveform has
fixed amplitude and width whereas the position of each pulse is varied as per instantaneous value of the analog signal.
PPM signal is further modification of a PWM signal.

27
Pulse Position ModulationThe vertical dotted lines shown in last slide
treated as reference lines.The PPM pulses marked 1,2 and 3 go
away from their respective reference lines.This corresponds to increase in modulating signal amplitude.
Then as modulating signal decreases the PPM pulses 4,5,6,7 come closer to their respective reference lines.
2710/31/2012 Punjab Edusat society
28
Pulse Position Modulation• The PPM signal can be generated from
PWM signal.• The PWM pulses obtained at the
comparator output are applied to a monostable multivibrator which is –ve edge
• triggered. • Hence for each trailing edge of PWM
signal, the monostable output goes high.It remains high for a fixed time decided by its own RC components.
2810/31/2012 Punjab Edusat society
29
Pulse Position Modulation
Thus as the trailing edges of the PWM signal keeps shifting in propotion with the modulating signal,the PPM pulses also keep shifting.
Therefore all the PPM pulses have the same amplitude and width.The information is conveyed via changing position of pulses.

Digital Pulse ModulationMerits of Digital Communication:
1.Digital signals are very easy to receive. The receiver has to just detect whether the pulse is low or high.
2.AM & FM signals become corrupted over much short distances as compared to digital signals. In digital signals, the original signal can be reproduced accurately.
3010/31/2012 Punjab Edusat society
31
Digital Pulse Modulation• Merits of Digital Communication
3.The signals lose power as they travel, which is called attenuation. When AM and FM signals are amplified, the noise also get amplified. But the digital signals can be cleaned up to restore the quality and amplified by the regenerators.
4.The noise may change the shape of the pulses but not the pattern of the pulses.
3110/31/2012 Punjab Edusat society
32
Digital Pulse ModulationMerits of Digital Communication:
5.AM and FM signals can be received by any one by suitable receiver. But digital signals can be coded so that only the person, who is intended for, can receive them.
6.AM and FM transmitters are ‘real time systems’. i.e. they can be received only at the time of transmission. But digital signals can be stored at the receiving end.
7.The digital signals can be stored.3210/31/2012 Punjab Edusat society
33
Digital Pulse ModulationThe process of Sampling which we have
already discussed in initial slides is also adopted in Digital pulse modulation.
It is mainly of two types:Pulse Code Modulation(PCM)Delta Modulation(DM)
3310/31/2012 Punjab Edusat society
34
Pulse Code Modulation(PCM)Pulse-Code Modulation (PCM) is the most
commonly used digital modulation schemeIn PCM, the available range of signal
voltages is divided into levels and each is assigned a binary number
Each sample is represented by a binary number and transmitted serially
The number of levels available depends upon the number of bits used to express the sample value
The number of levels is given by: N = 2m
3410/31/2012 Punjab Edusat society
35
Pulse Code Modulation(PCM) PCM consists of three steps to digitize
an analog signal:1. Sampling2. Quantization3. Binary encoding
Before we sample, we have to filter the signal to limit the maximum frequency of the signal .Filtering should ensure that we do not distort the signal, ie remove high frequency components that affect the signal shape.

37
Pulse Code Modulation(PCM)Analog to digital converter employs two
techniques: 1. Sampling: The process of generating
pulses of zero width and of amplitude equal to the instantaneous amplitude of the analog signal. The no. of pulses per second is called “sampling rate”.
3710/31/2012 Punjab Edusat society
38
Pulse Code Modulation(PCM) 2. Quantization: The process of dividing
the maximum value of the analog signal into a fixed no. of levels in order to convert the PAM into a Binary Code.
The levels obtained are called “quanization levels”.

QuantizationBy quantizing the PAM pulse, original signal
is only approximatedThe process of converting analog signals to
PCM is called quantizingSince the original signal can have an infinite
number of signal levels, the quantizing process will produce errors called quantizing errors or quantizing noise
4110/31/2012 Punjab Edusat society

Quantization
Two types of quantization: (a) midtread and (b) midrise
4210/31/2012 Punjab Edusat society

QuantizationCoding and DecodingThe process of converting an analog
signal into PCM is called coding, the inverse operation is called decoding
Both procedures are accomplished in a CODEC

Quantization ErrorWhen a signal is quantized, we introduce
an error - the coded signal is an approximation of the actual amplitude value.
The difference between actual and coded value (midpoint) is referred to as the quantization error.
The more zones, the smaller which results in smaller errors.
BUT, the more zones the more bits required to encode the samples -> higher bit rate

Pulse Code ModulationIn PCM system,N number of binary digits
are transmitted per sample.Hence the signaling rate and channel bandwidth of PCM are very large.
Also encodind,decoding and quantizing circuitary of PCM is complex.

51
Delta ModulationIn Delta Modulation, only one bit is
transmitted per sample That bit is a one if the current sample is
more positive than the previous sample, and a zero if it is more negative
Since so little information is transmitted, delta modulation requires higher sampling rates than PCM for equal quality of reproduction
5110/31/2012 Punjab Edusat society
52
Delta ModulationThis scheme sends only the difference
between pulses, if the pulse at time tn+1 is higher in amplitude value than the pulse at time tn, then a single bit, say a “1”, is used to indicate the positive value.
If the pulse is lower in value, resulting in a negative value, a “0” is used.
This scheme works well for small changes in signal values between samples.
If changes in amplitude are large, this will result in large errors.

Delta ModulationDistortions in DM system
1.If the slope of analog signal is much higher than that of approximated digital signal over long duration,than this difference is called Slope overload distortion.
2.The difference between quantized signal and original signal is called as Granular noise. It is similar to quantisation noise.

Delta Modulation
Two types of quantization errors :Slope overload distortion and granular noise
5710/31/2012 Punjab Edusat society
58
Delta ModulationDistortions in DM system
Granular noise occurs when step size▲ is large relative to local slope m(t).
There is a further modification in this system,in which step size is not fixed.
That scheme is known as Adaptive Delta Modulation.
5810/31/2012 Punjab Edusat society
59
Adaptive Delta ModulationA better performance can be achieved if
the value of ▲ is not fixed.The value of ▲ changes according to the
amplitude of the analog signal.It has wide dynamic range due to variable
step size.Also better utilisation of bandwidth as
compared to delta modulation.Improvement in signal to noise ratio.
